The new Air Jordan XX8 is bringing the Jordan brand into a new phase of its legacy.
Spacey, futuristic and progressive, this new version of the Air Jordan XX8 is forward-thinking both aesthetically and technically. Color wise, the stark lime green inner shell adds a distinctly wild accent as it seeps out of the all black exterior. In terms of design, the Zoom Unit provides amplified cushion due to the addition of the new Jordan Flight Plate. The Flight Plate gives added distance between the Zoom Air pockets in the bottom of the shoe and the wearer's feet. This means better cushioning and comfort.
Lastly, the Air Jordan XX8 includes Dynamic Fit technology, an exterior shroud and a carbon fiber heel. This shoe will be available by February 2013 for $250.
